Ocean of bliss
The turmoil of innocent eyes
wrapped with a mysterious canopy
riddles the world ,
blended with a disturbed atmosphere
love and affection are ultimately vapourised and lost somewhere
The lost serenity makes us to ponder
over rebuilding and redesigning the society:
a garden of love ,peace and tranquility
setting aside the division and diversity
of caste, colour and creed ,
where I can bloom as a fluorescent flower
with billowy fragrance and beauty.
Hope the riddled world will settle soon
with the overflow of streams
of love, peace and tranquility
that would mingle in the vast ocean of bliss.
No matter what may be the hue there of
we opt to sow seeds of love
that may inbuilt a fragrant garden in you.
It is time now …
We join hands to light our hearts:
dissipate the darkness of violence and war
and disseminate the message to the world
of love, peace and tranquility

The Breeze Of Despair
Fragrance of flowers seems now carried away
By the breeze of despair
Amidst the bouncing sparks of fireballs and fire-arms
Conquering and canoping the vast sky.
Smell of gunpowder hugs every schnozzle
And clouds of forlornness and fear
Float aimlessly in the air,
Arrogancy rarely understands
Why the mother earth is torn
To erase fraternity
And create a state of apathy
and stupor.
Bees stravaig, watching missiles.
While the birds continue searching for safe shelters
But amidst these fear and terrorism
The humanity sits closing the eyes
In a deadly trap of worldly affairs.
Still a state of silence
Radiates a bright light of freedom and non-alignment
From within.
Induces to walk on the edge of a sharp blade
to find an abode of peace
Beyond everyone’s dream
